To remove your "yellow box" place the component on the schematic; then use the
Descend arrow on the tool bar and click the component. This will put you into a
view of the internal part of the component.
The yellow box can then be deleted.
At the same time while descended, you can use the Attributes box at the top to
make the properties invisible. Save and then use the Ascend arrow to go back to
the schematic view.
The pin numbers will become visible as soon as you package the schematic.
If you find you have text shown in orange on a component on the schematic, that
usually means that there is no corresponding Property definition in the
symbol.css file that matches a header in the KEY property field in the part.ptf
file. The Key properties are those that appear to the LEFT of the = sign.
Please let me know if you have any questions.

Glad to help.
Any chance you can post a screenshot of the yellow box?
You would type display invisible and then LMB click on the PATH property.
Try and avoid using the Section command to display pin numbers as it limits
automatic swapping in the PCB. Rather, just let backannotation add them.

Jerry Grzenia

Hi Jerry,

I did file/open and opened the symbol. I can't see the yellow box, so I
can't remove it.

Section worked to make the pin numbers visible. So, any time I place a
component, the pin numbers aren't visible?

I'm on 15.7 if that matters. I don't find a display/invisible selection.

I'll try that...and that worked.

OK, I figured out how to add a property! Select what I'm guessing is the
origin (little "x" in the middle of the symbol), right click, select
attributes and that brings up a table I can edie/add.

Very much so, thank you!
